they may put this on instagram. this shocking stunt brought traffic to a halt on. >> one giant dog breed is known to get along well with kids. >> all that matters. jim kelly, nfl haller famer, not cancer-free. >> thank god this still-vibrant young man has the opportunity now to go on with his life. on "cbs this morning. ". >> the nfl apparently wants performers to pay to play the super bowl halftime show. >> i remember last year a group barely played -- oh that was the broncos. welcome to "cbs this morning." charlie rose and gayle king are off and jeff gore is here. we begin with new information on the failed effort to save james foley's life.

american special operations forces tried to rescue the american photo journalist less than two months before the terror group isis executed him. >> the u.s. commandos killed several isis militants on the ground in syria but they did not find foley and other captives. margaret brennan is at the released some details of that raid. margaret, good morning. carried out in early july. it involved air and ground forces w hstage. heavily armed two special inside an oil refinery in the . swoopd in one amgesanho heenhem in captivity. u.s. officials admit that the covert mission was based on good, but not great, intelligence. president obama authorized it because the hostages were thought to be in peril. the mission was revealed a day after isis posted video of foley being beheaded. the exact location of the remaining hostages remains unknown. another rescue attempts is unlikely. the u.s. military mission in iraq remains narrowly defined as humanitarian and aimed at

protecting u.s. personnel and facilities, not hunting isis leaders. there are at least five americans being held inside of syria, a country that's in the midst of a brutal war that has allowed isis to carve out a safe haven. now this is the first time the u.s. has acknowledged any operations inside of that country. isis has freed other hostages whose own governments help to pay for their release. >> margaret, thank you. president obama condemned isis on d the latest u.s. moves in iraq. >> the united states of america will continue to do what we must do to protect our people. we will be vigilant and we will erhas t be common effort to extract this cancer so that it does not spread. >> cbs news senior security contributor mike morrell is in washington. he was cia deputy director when foley was captured in 2012. mike, good morning. you heard th air strikes? >> i think it is going to take a co a safe haven to its job.

the other thing it battlefield. that means capturing or killing them. >> how is that done? >> acquiring the intelligence you need on where these guys a take them into custody or ama bin laden, cut the head off the snake. >> absolutely. this is a small leadership. exert exten to how the group oper oncerned isis might do inside the concern is the europeans that have gone to fight with isis could be trained and directed by isis to come to the united states, to conduct small-scale attacks. if an isis mechanical ber showed up in a mall in the united states tomorrow with an ak-47 and killed a number of americans, i would not be;< this group could present a 9/11-style threat. it took al qaeda 2 1/2 years to plan 9/11. it would not surprise me tut a mission inside syria in the midst of that civil war. the white house talked about

anonymously on a conference call with reporters the details of this secret mission to try and capture james foley. does that do damage to future missions? >> there was a reason the white house wanted to keep this secret, and it was a good reason. when we showed up at that oil refinery the hostages weren't there. so isis was not sure why we came. now they know. now they know that we may make an attempt to go after hostages so they will better protect them. and every little detail that is leaked out about this operation gives isis information that will help them protect against future operations. so there was a good reason they tried to keep it secret. >> mike you talked about some very heavy stuff earlier, about the potential threat on the u.s. homeland. does the president agree with those thoughts? >> in order to make a decision to take out the leadership of a group, the united states the president, has to make a

determination that the group poses a direct and imminent threat to the united states and that you can't capture these guys. so the only choice left is to kill them. i don't know whether the president has made that determination or not. >> all right, mike morell thank you. in the next hour we'll take a closer look at jim foley ahead on "cbs this morning." we got word early this morning an american doctor is winning his fight against the deadly ebola vierus. kent brantly arrived at emory university hospital nearly three weeks ago for the treatment of the epidemic that's killed nearly 1,300 people. >> dr. brantly and nancy writebol were missionaries who contracted the virus while caring for victims in liberia. doctors will discuss the discharge of both patients later today but according to his aide group, it appears as though

brantly has survived the disease. a statement released this morning by the aid group brantly had been working with says we celebrate dr. kent brantly's recovery from ebola and release from the hospital. it is encouraging news for brantly, who had been held in isolation, trying to fight off a virus with the mortality rate of up to 90%. three weeks ago he was flown from africa to atlanta and transported by ambulance to emory university hospital with help from a paramedic, he was able to walk into the facility a positive sign of his condition at the time. three days later, nancy writebol made the same journey but had to be wheeled in emery on a gurney. his husband told us his wife was improving. >> she's doing better bit by bit. >> reporter: before they left for liberia, they both received doses of the experimental ebola drug zmapp. questions still remain on

exactly what role the drug played in their treatment. the two worked at a missionary clinic outside liberia's capital, the country hit hardest by the ebola outbreak. the situation in liberia continued to worsen on wednesday as police dressed in riot gear seal off 50,000 people inside a slum. the country is trying to contain the outbreak which has already killed nearly 600 people. the man in charge of street security in ferguson missouri says the city had a very good night. last night's protests over the deadly police shooting were much smaller and quieter. only six people were arrested. a new cbs news/"new york times" poll out this morning shows 41% of americans are satisfied with the president's response to the ferguson violence.9o 34% are dissatisfied. 60% of african-americans in this poll poll, but only 35% of whites are satisfied with the white house reaction. vladimir duthiers is in ferguson

where the president spent much of yesterday. >> reporter: good morning. visit by attorney general eric holder to ferguson was really annest by the white house to try to bring back confidence to a community that's just been torn apart by the shooting of the 18-year-old michael brown. >> why would i be any place other than right here, right now. >> reporter: eric holder's message to the people of ferguson missouri -- we want to help. he stopped by a local restaurant to speak with members of the local community. >> we want to rectify and have justice for everybody that's involved in this. >> reporter: he also met with the missouri highway patrol captain, ron johnson. holder is the country's first african-american attorney general. during a private meeting wednesday, he said he understood the black community's mistrust of police and recalls his own experience with racial profiling. his visit came as a grand jury began hearing evidence to determine whether to bring charges against officer darren wilson in the shooting death of michael brown. outside the courthouse

protesters gathered. many arguing that prosecutor bob mccullough should step down from the case. five members of mccullough's family work for the st. louis police department including his father who was killed by a black suspect. critics point to that incident as the reason he should step down. he argues that's a reason to stay on the job. >> did it effect me? absolutely affected me. and what it did for me or to me was made me i think a fierce advocate for vic tils ofvictims of violence. >> reporter: but some here are not convinced. >> you know the joke in the prosecutor's office. everybody knows, you can get a grand jury to indict people who are black. >> we're thinking oh well something is getting ready to happen, justice getting ready to be served but what they don't know is this is the beginning of a process that's probably going to end up with this case not being issued or a lesser

included charge. >> reporter: many here are seeing holder's presence as a step towards transparency. also on wednesday, st. louis police released video and 911 calls related to the death of a 25-year-old black man who was shot and killed by police on tuesday. take a look at this video. the man can be seen here confronting police with a steak knife after a store owner suspected him of shoplifting. the man is then seen on the ground after being shot 12 times. now the st. louis police chief reportedly cited federal government son as the reason for releasing as much information as possible as quickly as possible. nora? >> vl aflt d,ad, thank you so much. nearly $17 billion, the price tag for bank of america this morning and a record settlement with the government. deal stems with the bank's role in the deal of mortgage-backed securities just before the 2008 financial crisis. the bank will pay $10 billion in cash, another $7 billion will go directly to homeowners. it is the largest settlement to come from the economic meltdown.

cbs business news analyst is here. the largest settlement ever in the u.s. between a company. >> we're seeing big companies say we've got to put this behind us we're done. the government may be saying you know what? we got a lot of flack of not getting enough out of the stimulus. yes, we got interest on a lot of. money we did with t.a.r.p. this is way for the government to redeem itself. think. about it. $17 billion from bank of america. $13 billion from jpmorgan morgan chase, that beefs up the coffers, even though they aren't really associated with the bailout. >> for as many mistakes as they've made total tab for bank of america is between $60 billion and $80 billion? how does a company survive and stay healthy paying out that much? >> it is interesting. it is about three years' of profits. the $17 billion.

the 60 to 80 billion mr. is what they've been counting on all along, putting money aside. what's interesting about this story, some of this is self-inflicted. bank of america bought countrywide mortgage it bought merrill lynch. much of this settlement comes from those two acquisitions. frankly, the folks who made those acquisitions are no longer at the bank. they're the ones who really have a lot of the black eyes here. i don't think that the bank is going to be in any trouble. in fact, the stock went you a little bit yesterday on the news. stocks down about 10% in the last five years. s&p 500 is up 96%. >> $17 billion fine. slightly more than a parking ticket. >> just a bit. >> thank you very much jill. former virginia governor bob mcdonnell will take the stand today in day 19 of his trial. he and his wife face bribery charges after allegedly taking loans and gifts from a friend. chip reed showsid tell us why mcdonnell says he's relieved. >> good among. this is the moment everyone

following this trial has been waiting for. former governor bob mcdonnell was once thought of as a possible republican presidential candidate. now his porpoise on the stand is expected to play a crucial role in determining whether he and his wife go free or go to prison for are whowhat could be a long time. >> reporter: leaving the courthouse wednesday, bob mcdonnell seemed well aware that the hardest part is still ahead. >> talking about marriage and finances are hard for anybody. >> reporter: especially his marriage. asked about his wife maureen wednesday, mcdonnell testified that on the day after he was elected, "i could tell she was not as happy as i was. she was yelling at me about something." but that's nothing compared to what mr. mcdonnell's own lawyers have said about her. legal animal cyst robert holsworth has been in the courtroom. >> they've essentially thrown maureen mcdonnell under the bus, and rolled it back and forth on her a couple of times. they've pr troyed her as

troubled, irrational. defense witnesses have called her mentally ill. >> reporter: it is all part of a strategy by mr. mcdonnell's legal team to blame maureen for the $165,000 in gifts that were showered on the mcdonnells by businessman jhonny williams including $20,000 in designer clothes for her, a $6,000 rolex for him, and expensive vacations for both that included the use of a fera ferrari. prosecutors say then governor mcdonnell promoted the businessman's company. but mcdonnell testified wednesday that he gave williams nothing more than routine access. today the spotlight is expected to shift to maureen, and for bob mcdonnell it will be like walking a he very slippery tight rope. >> he certainly cannot be part of the sort of group that's throwing his wife under the bus. he has to talk about how he's loved her. he has to talk about the nearly 40 years of marriage. >> at the same time mcdonnell

has to make clear that his wife kept him in the dark about the full extent of the gifts. big question is how far will he go in blaming his wife. nora? >> chip, thank you so much. in gaza this morning, an israeli air strike killed three hamas says the three men were responsible for a number of attacks on israeli targets. also this morning, for the first time hamas officials confirm that the group kidnapped three israeli teenagers who were killed back in june. u.p.s. store customers may be the latest victims of a credit card security breach. a computer virus was found on cash registers at 51 u.p.s. stores in 24 states. the shipping giant says information leaked to computer hackers since january could include names credit and debit card numbers and postal addresses.

reporting. >> all of us feel the ache of his absence. all of us mourn his loss. >> reporter: foley also reported from afghanistan and iraq. in libya, he witnessed a colleague die during an ambush by gadhafi loyalists. >> i was hit several times with butt of an ak-47, punched and dragged into a vehicle with my hands tied behind my back. >> reporter: he and two other journalists spent 44 days in captivity. after his release, he said praying the rosary sustained him during his ordeal. >> i knew that's what my mom would be praying, my grandmother would be praying. some kind of idea that you can communicate with them because you couldn't communicate with them. >> reporter: before he became a journalist foley was a teacher. helping low-income students in phoenix and jail inmates in chicago. friends say he was the kind of guy who called other guys bro and dude and that women loved his broad shoulder and even broader smile. he considered it his mission to tell the stories of people caught up in the brutality of

war. >> he was a courageous fearless journalist. very compassionate american. i mean the best of america. >> now james foley was 40 years old when he was killed. according to the committee to protect journalists, he is the 70th journalist killed since the syrian civil war began. there are an estimated 0 other journalists still missing in that country. >> ben thank you. this morning, "consumer reports" has a bone to pick with the fda. the government recently came out with guidelines urging people to eat more fish. but for the first time the fda set a minimum level for pregnant women between 8 and 12 ounces a week. >> but "consumer reports" found reason for concern over mercury in some kinds of fish. the director of consumer safety and sustain ability is with us this morning. so the government report came out in june. what did you find with when you looked? >> the government report basically says people should be eating more fish. we agree. i think where we differ here is

in what kinds of fish people should eat. we want people to make the safest options. when it comes to being pregnant we want pregnant women to actually avoid tuna altogether so that they aren't subject to the risks. when we look at the fda's most recent data 20% of chunk white tuna cans actually are double the average that the fda reports and uses in their assessment. we think that's too much. we don't think pregnant women need to take that on. while you're pregnant reach down the aisle for canned wild salmon. that's a better option. >> why only 20% of canned tuna have those high mergry rymercury levels? >> it is unclear. chunk light is a blend of tunas. they thought chunk white was among the lowest in average levels, but as we've seen in the last few years, the frequency of hitting a spike with chunk white has gotten higher. >> i always thought the tuna in restaurant has high levels of mercury but the chunk light tuna in the store in med ration isoderation

is fine. >> now it is 20% of chunk white cans are spiking. we just think during the time you're pregnant, you don't have to take on that risk. there is plenty of other great fish to choose from with all the benefits and a lower risk. >> they said the methodology employed by "consumer reports" overlooks the strong body of scientific evidence published in the last study, basically saying the nutritional val alal value outweighed any proposed risk. >> they are trying to subtract the risks from that benefit and give you the net benefit. we are saying yes, fish has a benefit but the less mercury you get is better. we want people to make safer options, safer choices, especially when they're pregnant when the fetus is the most damageable to the damaging effects of mercury. >> what are the effects of mercury? >> well, there are many. neuro toxin is primarily what mercury does especially when you

have a fetus that's developing its neurological system. there's also consequences for adults who eat high mercury that are very similar. it can also be an immune toxin. >> i have a 2 1/2-year-old who's obsessed with fish sticks right now. for children what is the good amount? >> we have a list that all the data we and the fda looked at. haddock, tilapia, these are all good choices. when it comes to tuna be careful with the kids. we have a graph based on the weight of a child and how much tuna they should be eating each week. parent should be very careful and check that. >> luckily, he doesn't like tuna. to see how much tuna you should be getting from fish and to read the "consumer reports" piece, go to cbsthismorning.com. great news for nfl hall of famer jim kelly in his fight against cancer. yesterday during a check-up doctors said there is no evidence of sinus cancer

she cemented her place in history books as the first girl to pitch a shutout and the first lig leaguer to grace the cover of "sports illustrated." the kids from philly turn their focus to the jackie robinson west all-stars, a team from the south side of chicago has an inspiring story of their own. they skirted elimination earlier in the tournament and have defied the odds to reach the knockout semi-final. now mo'ne is not eligible today because of pitch count restrictions but if they can make it past chicago she will be eligible to pitch in saturday's championship game. >> they've got to win tonight. >> so they have to win tonight against chicago and then -- >> which is another great team and another great story. >> right. then they play vegas again on saturday. but vegas has kind of rolled both of these teams. they seem to be doing very well. but they have to win what?
